Is it possible to web scraping a page to update a case ?

Hi everyone,

I started using EspoCRM and I am very excited with all the system features.


Please, anyone already did a function to scraping a external public website and get the updates for a case in CRM ?


Thank you in advance

Nope, no one have shared it public-ally. Only two method that you can retrieve data is to API from the website to the EspoCRM, the other is Webhook from the website to EspoCRM. Both of which require access to the website.

You can't just "scrape" what you can see. You would need to write some sort of scraper code/program, then send the data back to EspoCRM through POST/API/Webhook or find a software that can do that for you.
